Evidence-backed setup
Choose your MCP client. A client connects to the MCP server; the language model is selected inside that client. Only stored, source-backed configurations are shown.
Transport not recorded
Complete client-specific setup, verification and removal are not documented in this reviewed source.
Publisher-documented setup is not the same as MCP100 execution testing. “MCP100 logic checked” means the stored configuration shape was reviewed, not that third-party MCP software was run.

Microsoft’s MarkItDown project includes a small MCP server exposing document-to-Markdown conversion through one tool. The tool can fetch HTTP/HTTPS URLs and read local file URIs, so it should be treated as a trusted local capability. Microsoft explicitly warns against binding HTTP/SSE to non-local interfaces without understanding the security implications.
Not measured yet
